Least Significant Bits

This paper suggests an efficient fragile watermarking scheme for image content authentication along with altered region restoration capability. In this scheme, image is divided into nonoverlapping blocks of size 2 × 2 and for each block, eight bits for image content recovery data and four bits for authentication data from five most significant bits (MSBs) of each pixel, are generated. These 12 bits are embedded into the least significant bits (LSBs) of the pixels which are placed in its corresponding mapping block. At the receiver end by comparing the recalculated and extracted authentication data, the tampered blocks can easily be identified and using recovery data, one can easily restore the tampered block. Results of experiments demonstrate that the proposed scheme is effective enough for alteration detection as well as tamper recovery of the image.

Watermarking Scheme

Hard mathematical problems having no polynomial time algorithms to determine a solution are seemly in design of secure cryptosystems. The proposed watermarking system used number theoretic concepts of the hard higher order Diophantine equations for image content authentication scheme with three major phases such as 1) Formation of Diophantine equation; 2) Generation and embedding of dual Watermarks; and 3) Image content authentication and verification of integrity. Quality of the watermarked images, robustness to compression and security are bench-marked with two peer schemes which used dual watermarks.

For existing airspace fragile authentication watermarking algorithm positioning accuracy and security issues, this paper presents a fully-fragile watermarking based on chaos for the integrity of the image content authentication and tamper localization. The algorithm uses the original image block, the calculation of each pixel in the image block high-bit gray value as the image feature watermark information. The chaotic sequence is encrypted and determines the position of the watermark bit is embedded watermark information, tampering with the positioning accuracy of an image block of 2 × 2 pixels. Experimental results show that the algorithm is simple, safe, with good practice.

Watermarking Scheme

The watermarking scheme in digital media communication has become an essential tool in helping content creators prove ownership if any dispute arises in copyright infringement. In this paper, Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is performed in the watermarking process which improves the authentication of the image and the detection of the tampered region. The semi-fragile watermarking scheme provides robustness to the watermark during extraction process even after the unintentional compression attacks like JPEG compression. The watermark payload is significantly lowered in order to increase the quality of the image. The recovery is done using the absolute moment block truncation coding (AMBTC) of the image in the untampered region. Thus, both the mean and first absolute moment are used in recovering the tampered regions in the watermarked image.
